PS3-exclusive Way of the Samurai 4 announced for U.S.

XSEED Games today announced that Spike and Acquire's Way of the Sammurai 4 is confirmed for release in North America on the PS3 exclusively.

XSEED will be bringing it to North American PS3 owners "uncut and uncensored", meaning torture chambers, naughty midnight missions in the dark, and all the brutal slaughtering await you in this sandbox-style samurai period drama.

Admiral Perry has just opened Japan’s borders to the British, allowing for a long-overdue globalization process to begin. Unfortunately, one of the open ports happens to be a modest Japanese burg called Amihama, where a resistance group known as the “Disciples of Prajna” have taken up arms against the arriving foreigners and all who support them.

As a lone samurai who’s just arrived amidst the chaos, it’s up to you whether you want to join forces with the Prajna resistance, fight alongside the foreigners in the name of progress or take your stance somewhere between the two by supporting the local government’s attempts to quell the violence (through any means possible).

…Or you could just hit on all the local women, deck out your samurai in wildly anachronistic (and highly customizable) gear, murder and deceive your way into positions of power, learn English and schmooze with the foreigners, or while away your time in the Eastern-style gambling den or Western-style casino.

There is no release date or pricing info just yet, but it will come "soon".
